Faster printing in PrintShop Mail Connect
For PrintShop Mail Connect, the speed limit in the license will be applied differently, resulting in
faster printing. Instead of applying the licensed speed only to the final step of the print process
(the Output Creation), the speed limit is now applied to the entire print process. Thus the time
required for Data Mapping, Content Creation and Job Creation are now taken into
consideration as well. The final Output Creation step will now run as fast as required to have
the entire print process completed at the licensed speed.
For example, if a 1000 page job needs 40 seconds for content creation, output creation
(Weaver engine) is allowed to run at 3000 pages per minute to have the entire print process
finish in 1 minute (assuming a licensed speed of 1000 pages per minute). Previously Output
Creation would be limited to the licensed speed and cause the whole process to take 1 minute
40 seconds.
PrintShop Mail Connect now also shows a post printing report with details on job size and time
spent. (SHARED-56386).
